They will have to relent on this. It's not going to fly in most of the country and when COVID drops back down to background noise during the spring and summer there will be pushback. |
It is virtue signaling at its worst. I wouldn't give in. If you are in California, my unvaxed 21yo son was just in So Cal for 10 days and not one place was enforcing checking for the vax card. Also, dining outdoors is okay for unvaxed. The issue of myocarditis is real and seems under reported in this country compared to stats from other countries, and I would be very hesitant to give in if I were you. |
Oh, I am so sorry. That is simply ridiculous. I have an unvaccinated 7 year old and am worried about exactly this. Parents shouldn’t have to make health related decisions based on such horrible public health policy. This is maddening. If the shot is effective and necessary, that’s one think. It hasn’t even been fully approved for kids age 6-12. Still EUA. |
| *one thing |
Most school require vaccinations to enrol. This is just another one. That's fine you don't really care whether your choice not to have your son vaccinated impacts others. But why should anyone care that the vaccine passport impacts you? |
Note that those school vaccine mandates exist to help with limiting transmission to other students, not to protect students from themselves. It's uncertain at this point whether or not there is much of a long term transmission benefit to these new vaccines. |
| If the vaccine passport is about safety, then why does DC exempt employees who work in restaurants and other establishments? This is BS. |
The Covid vaccine it not fully FDA-approved for kids age 6-12. It is still EUA. What EUA vaccine is required for a child to attend public school? None. That would be insanity. It is unethical to require a 6 year old to get an EUA vaccine for any reason. I can guarantee you that history will look back at the data and come to that conclusions. These vaccine mandates for kids are truly unethical with the information we currently have. |
Not true. Misinformation. Vaccinated kids can and do transmit COVID to others. Arguably, it’s even worse, because the vaccinated kids are sometimes asymptomatic and more likely to be out and about at school. |
+1. I truly hope that the private schools who are pushing for school mandates think about this more thoroughly. It is a nightmare to be in a private school at this time. They like to cater to the Covidian Karens. |
Well you can think whatever the hell you want.
I happen to know the viral load from a vaxxed and boosted person is still quite sufficient to infect someone else quite easily and quickly. I infected my mother in a ten minute car ride before I even had symptoms. |
The Great Reset |
Are Montgomery County private schools pushing to mandate boosters? That is crazy. I can see how tough and disruptive that would be, to pull your kid out of a private school. PP, if it makes you feel better though, MCPS already requires vaccines for any student athlete over the age of 12. |
We need to reset how we think about COVID. Stop with the mandates and restrictions on kids, especially. |
Agree. I am pro vax, anti mandate, particularly on kids. We are completely stunting the development of a generation of kids. I couldn’t imagine having a young child dealing with this stuff. Falling behind at every marker. And we are supposed to cherish our young people, aren’t we? And no chance on booster. |
